A member asked:
Light bleeding today & period isn't due for 5-6 days. is this caused by taking antibiotics & bc pills at the same time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Menses irregular: This can be due to many different causes, but if you have had an infection requiring antibiotics it may have been due to that. Mild irregularities in your period may also occur with BCPs. If it recurs with regularity you may want to see a gynecologist.
